Reebok’s Iconic ‘Boxing Boot’ Returns March 15
Reebok made its official foray into the sport in the mid ‘90s, yet its founders’ work designing boxing boots dates all the way back to the early 1900s. While the brand’s more-contemporary advertisements (from 1996 – 2000, roughly) spoke to the mental stamina and strength required by the sport, its heritage and expertise in footwear design for combat sport shines through to today.
A lightweight training and fight boot built for contenders of all levels, the classic, no-frills Reebok Boxing Boot is engineered to optimize agility, stability, and traction, while standing out in a field of overbuilt competitors.
Key Reebok Boxing Boot design elements include:
- Ballistic mesh upper for breathability and durability.
- Microsuede toe cap and overlays for added durability, prevents snagging on ring or opponent’s feet.
- Ankle strap for support and locked down fit.
- Heat-molded heel counter for torsional rigidity.
- Thin, comfortable spandex insole.
- Low stack height for close ground feel.
- Herring bone gum outsole for traction.
- Welded Reebok “Vector” logo on medial and lateral sides.
- Designed to fit snug – to feel like an extension of one’s own foot.
- High-cut model improves stability, while all-new mid-cut build reduces weight and improves mobility.
- Classic black and white color pallet.
The Reebok Boxing Boot is available March 15 in its classic high-cut design ($100) and an all-new mid-cut iteration ($100), exclusively from Reebok.com and the Reebok HQ store in Boston, Massachusetts.
